Present Case Study

Disorders in patients who develop squamous cell carcinoma can lead to severe conditions. The present case study evidences the advance of this pathology in a patient who goes to the medical services when the problem has advanced. Objective- To describe the case of a patient who underwent surgery to remove a tumor from the vulvar region to prevent it from triggering in severe states. Method - Surgery of a vulvar tumor, performed on a female patient of 62 years. Result- Squamous cell carcinoma, infiltrative verrucous type, with dimensions of 7x6 cm, with an invasion depth of 2.7 mm in the central region    Conclusion- This type of pathology should not be allowed to worsen when it occurs, as it deteriorates the quality of life of patients over the years. If it is detected and treated early, complications can be avoided. In the present case, the histopathological diagnosis was epidermoid carcinoma. It is expected that the information collected will be useful to professionals and that it contributes as an alert to detect early health problems in patients.

Összefoglaló. A lateralis cysticus nyaki terimék két leggyakoribb oka a branchiogen cysta és a cysticus nyaki áttét. Az átfedő lokalizáció (a leggyakrabban a IIA nyaki régióban), a betegek életkora és az esetenként hirtelen kezdet alapján a két leggyakoribb ok differenciáldiagnózisa nagy kihívást jelenthet. Egy hirtelen fellépő fájdalmas, bal oldali nyaki duzzanattal, dysphagiával és lázzal jelentkező 72 éves férfi esetét ismertetjük. A nyak komputertomográfiás vizsgálata egy 6 cm legnagyobb átmérőjű, vastag falú, többrekeszes cysticus terimét igazolt. Infektív branchiogen cysta lehetőségére gondolva az elváltozást eltávolítottuk. A szövettan azonban p16-pozitív laphámrákot igazolt. A primer tumort végül az ipsilateralis tonsilla palatina állományában sikerült azonosítani. A beteg definitív radioterápiában részesült, és 18 hónappal a diagnózis után tumormentes. A nyaki cystákon, az infektív nyaki cystákon és a cysticus metastasisokon kívül a humán papillómavírussal összefüggő szájgarati laphámrákok infektív cysticus vagy necroticus metastasisait is figyelembe kell venni a lateralis cysticus nyaki terimék differenciáldiagnózisában. Orv Hetil. 2020; 162(15): 595–600. Summary. Branchial cleft cysts and cystic neck metastases are the two most common causes of cystic lateral neck masses. Based on the overlapping location (neck level IIA), patient age at onset and the occasionally sudden onset, their differential diagnosis is challenging. We present a 72-year-old male presenting with a suddenly emerging painful, left-sided neck swelling, dysphagia and fever. Computed tomography showed a 6 cm thick-walled multicystic mass. With the suspected diagnosis of an infected branchial cleft cyst, the lesion was removed. Histology confirmed p16 positive squamous cell carcinoma. Primary tumor was identified in the ipsilateral palatine tonsil. Definive radiotherapy was performed and the patient is free of disease at the 18-month follow-up. Beyond pure and infected branchial cleft cysts and pure cystic metastases, infected cystic or necrotic metastasis of human papillomavirus associated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma should be included in the differential diagnosis of cystic lateral neck lesions.

P16 Expression

Abstract Context.—Distinguishing between keratoacanthoma (KA) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is not an uncommon histologic diagnostic dilemma. Objective.—To determine if p16 expression is useful in the differential diagnosis of SCC and KA. Design.—We studied the expression of p16 by immunohistochemistry in 24 KAs, 24 infiltrating SCCs of the skin, 4 histologically indeterminate lesions, and 8 nonmalignant keratoses. Results.—A range of immunohistochemical p16 expression was seen in KAs and SCCs in terms of the thickness of lesional staining and the percentage of cells staining. No significant difference in measures of p16 expression was identified among the KAs, the SCCs, the indeterminate lesions, or the benign keratoses. Conclusions.—These findings suggest that p16 is not a useful marker to distinguish between KA and SCC, supporting the similarity between the 2 lesions; p16 alterations appear to play a role in the pathogenesis of both KA and SCC.

In this case study, we present an unusual case with squamous cell carcinoma surrounding the penis involving foreskin and glans of penis. In addition, multiple satellite nodules were noted in the pubis. A 57-year-old circumcised heterosexual male patient presented with a penile lesion existing for 10 years. At the same time, he was referred to an outpatient memory clinic because of persistent subjective memory complaints associated with depression and anxiety. The patient was operated under general anaesthesia. The lesion was resected circumferentially with macroscopic clearance, resulting in complete degloving of the penile shaft. Neurovascular bundles were preserved. Histopathological analysis of the lesion revealed an invasive and poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma, and the surgical margins were free from tumour. The patient was followed for 18 months. He did not have voiding difficulty. Pelvic tomographic and physical examination findings did not reveal any episode of recurrence or metastasis. Treatment of carcinoma resulted in a simultaneous full recovery of his memory decline and he remained free of depression and anxiety symptoms over time.
